12d 3h 34m [Info] Almost no one is inputting. Chat is mostly focused on chatting instead of inputting. Some factions want to go hunt Zygarde cells while others simply want to wait for Festival Plaza to unlock in 2h24m.

12d 2h 55m We peruse the options screen and save the game a few times. Devs have turned on the 3DS's Internet, but our Festival Plaza timer won't run out for 3h2m, and Felk currently does not know how to disable the timer.

[Meta] I'm going to take a brief break and grab food while we're climbing the mountain so that I'll be able to document our upcoming battles against the E4 without interruption. Sorry for the inconvenience.
